Proclaiming the Risen Son in the Land of the Rising Sun: Boots on the Ground in Osaka!
http://brentkooi.blogspot.com/2014/09/boots-on-ground-in-osaka.html
Saturday, September 13, 2014. Boots on the Ground in Osaka! But until then, this is an inexpensive place to live. I ventured out on my second day to find Mustard Seed Church, a three year old bilingual. Congregation. It was so good to worship in Japan, and to sing praises in Japanese, even if. It was just singing sounds that are mostly unintelligible to me right now! I will be involved. At Mustard Seed as much as possible until the GIC team is able to launch a church plant in a year or two. Thank you to ...

Grace 4 Japan: December 2012
http://www.grace4japan.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 12, 2012. Contributions, Pledges, and Financial Partnership. This is an update to a previous post answering questions about pledging and giving. Since some of that information has changed (now that we're on the field in Nagoya), we thought it important to post this update. Our hope is that financial contributors will see themselves as as more than "donors". We want you to realize that you're partnering. Senders at home. Without both. Together to make that happen. Making a pledge i...

Saturday, June 21, 2014. Photos from Recent Hike. In our June 2014 newsletter. We made reference to a recent hiking trip with teammate, Tom Wilson.

Grace 4 Japan: "Do you want that TO GO?"
http://www.grace4japan.com/2012/12/you-want-that-to-go.html
Friday, December 7, 2012. Do you want that TO GO? This is just a lighthearted story from a few weeks ago. Maybe it'll provide a chuckle at our expense and also give you another peek into our lives here. Thanksgiving Lunch with our Team. To the recipe. This fact is important to the following story.as is the unhappy reality that the aforementioned crunchy onions are a little hard to find here in Japan. I immediately started thinking about the mental effort it'd take to communicate that I wanted those.

Thursday, November 22, 2012. The Good Shepherd (Luke 15:1-7). Each Sunday at Nisshin Christ Church, the sermon is translated into English in a manuscript that is available for those (of us) who don't yet speak Japanese. A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to preach the Good News on a Sunday morning. The manuscript for that sermon follows:. In the today’s passage, we see that “Tax Collectors” and “Sinners” were drawing near to Jesus, and the Jewish leaders were grumbling a...When reading the Gospels, i...
